This is a long access line from the top of "Fontaines" chairlift where a 1 1/2 hour hike is needed. The line is steep on the hiking part too and skins can make it much quicker. Turn left after the ridge on your left side, more or less follow "Cret beni steep line" access until the little summit. The line gets a lot of sun so make sure snow conditions are worthy before heading in. Avalanche risk is pretty important due the face exposure taking a lot of sun and making the area more unstable. Apart from a couple of steep parts the area feels pretty gentle in terms of gradient. The line finishes on the green piste "Pingouin" which leads back to Cret Beni ski area after a walk back by the forest to the main ski area.
